I am an Instructor at the Department of Linguistics of the University of the Philippines Diliman, where I teach Linguistics (Lingg) and Japanese language (Hapon) courses. My research interests include language documentation, morphosyntax, experimental linguistics, and the Japanese language.
Languages that I have worked on include:
- Tagalog (tgl)
- Bugkalot/Eg̓ongot (ilk)
- Pangasinan (pag)
- Keley-i (ify)
- Cuyonon (cyo)
I have also been part of collaborative language documentation projects with the Bugkalot/Eg̓ongot (ilk), Kalanguya (kak), and Dumagat/Remontado (agv) communities.
Currently, I am in Urawa, Japan as a participant in the Japan Foundation’s 6-month Basic Training Program for Teachers of the Japanese Language. I am also currently working on my MA Lingg thesis, “Verb Subcategorization in Bugkalot/Eg̓ongot.”
Outside linguistics, I also do graphic design, translation, and video editing.
